00:00Big 10 battle, Matt Rule.

00:02And here's what I love about this game.

00:04His dream job, quote unquote, is the Penn State Nittany Lions job.

00:07Every time he gets a win, it's going to look better for the Penn State Nittany Lions

00:11or his agent to re-up another contract with the Nebraska Cornhuskers.

00:16This line opened up around five and a half, Joe.

00:18We're now sitting at some outlets over seven points at minus seven and a half

00:21as a road favorite towards Nebraska.

00:23The total is at 47 and a half.

00:26Nebraska on the road to take on P.J. Fleck,

00:28rowing the boat with the Minnesota Golden Gophers.

00:31What is the spread line for this game tonight, Joe?

00:34Well, I think they call him what?

00:35Mini Mahomes, right?

00:37Dylan Raiola, the Nebraska quarterback.

00:39Yes.

00:40Well, he's going to be on full display here tonight in a primetime game.

00:45And it's interesting because not only him, but this entire Cornhuskers team,

00:51this line opened up at five and a half, Donnie.

00:53It has been bet up as high as minus nine middle of the week.

00:58And we talked about this game on Monday.

01:00And I said, we need to keep an eye on this one.

01:02And we need to keep an eye on the next one we're going to talk about with Miami and Louisville.

01:07But there is no doubt that the Matt Rule, that whole idea of every program he's been to,

01:13the third year is the year that they kick it into another gear.

01:18And yes, he played linebacker for Penn State.

01:21He's a Penn State alum.

01:22Everyone's talking about him.

01:24But it doesn't escape the fact, Donnie, that this would have been a perfect game in which

01:28the public is going to be like, wait a minute.

01:30I mean, Minnesota at home with P.J.

01:33Fleck, like what is going on here?

01:35Well, what's going on here is clear, is that P.J.

01:39Fleck, this is not the old Minnesota teams, especially defensively, Donnie.

01:43You know why?

01:45Because he lost his stud defensive coordinator, who, by the way, you'll be able to see tonight,

01:50Donnie, because you know where he's at?

01:52He's the University of Miami number one defense in the country.

01:56He's their defensive coordinator.

01:58They have no offense.

02:00They have absolutely no more defense.

02:03And that is why this line has moved where it is.

02:06Nebraska is the better team and should handle business here tonight.
